Roasted Edamame

September 22, 2009

The hardest thing for our clients (one of them, anyway) is not eating after 7. So, when I had extra edamame pods from a stew, I decided to roast the little beans of joy. The aroma in the house was unbelievable. One of the clients, a cute lil‘ girl, came out of her room walking […]

Spicy Thai Beef Wraps

September 13, 2009

saporito/spicy So, I think I am beginning to get into a groove here. While I still don’t have a permanent place within the house, I am close. And, oddly enough, my little mini-meltdown on the phone earlier this week with my mother actually worked out for the positive. No, I didn’t meltdown because I thought […]
